First Venture Into The Salty World - 30L Cube - What Equipment Needed?

[lljdma06]

What gobies are you looking at? Some are territorial. I have a 12usg nano cube. I have a fire fish and may add a blue spot jawfish and that's it.

I love blue spot jawfish. I got a mated pair of yellow heads, but oh, are those blue spots gorgeous! I shall covet it when you get one.

Yeah, some gobies are territorial. This is for an approximate 8g? I've got a yellow watchman in mine with a tiger pistol. Other people keep the high-fin banded gobies and the Yashas with randal's pistol shrimp. These fish jump, though, so a tight lid is needed. No gaps. Fire fish are nice too, but jumpers as well. My new 8g will feature a Helfrich's fire fish and another fish of some type. I'm mulling it over. A lot of choices if you're creative. The key, IMO, is to pick two fish of contrasting habits and who occupy very different zones of the tank. They shouldn't look similar either.

I had a Yasha with a candy cane pistol (yellow antennae with a body that was striped like a candy cane) in my old tank. Those were very beautiful fish!

Definitely cover your tank. I'm tired of reading threads where people didn't and now they are whining because their favorite fish is dried and shriveled on the floor. I have all 3 of my tanks covered.

I have Flame wrasses and a Potter's wrasse in QT. Yep that's definitely covered!

Cheers. I am going to miss my fish though. I have never left them for this long before. My girlfriend is scared to put her hands in the tank so I hope she looks after them ok. If not, she will find herself single...
